Wednesday 08/August/2018 - 04:40 PM
The Iraqi Foreign Ministry on Wednesday urged both
Saudi Arabia and Canada to end their differences and hold high the higher
interests of both countries.
Foreign Ministry spokesman Ahmed Mahgoub, in a
released statement, said Iraq is following up with concern the developments in
relations between Saudi Arabia and Canada.
Saudi Arabia had
earlier expelled the Canadian ambassador and summoned its envoy in Ottawa along
with freezing trade relations with Canada over a diplomatic row between both
sides that was caused when Ottawa expressed concern over arrested civil society
activists in Saudi Arabia.
